Manual speaker setup
This receiver allows you to make detailed
settings to optimize the surround sound
performance. You only need to make these
settings once (unless you change the
placement of your current speaker system or
add new speakers.).
These settings are designed to fine-tune your
system, but if you’re satisfied with the settings
made in
Automatically setting up for surround
sound (MCACC)
on page 12, it isn’t necessary
to make all of these settings.

menu then press
ENTER

Setup menu
